Premium Member Groovy Hippy Girl

She is a groovy, hippy girl.

     She loves that funky, trippy beat.

It is her hippy, trippy world!

     She is a groovy, hippy girl.

She dances funky, hippy twirls,

     and when she sits, she taps her feet.

She is a groovy, hippy girl.

     She loves that funky, trippy beat.

Premium Member I Was a Hippy

To tell you the truth 
In my days of youth

To put it quite mild, 
I was carefree and wild
  
A hipster by all means 
Wearing my wholly bellbottom jeans
 
Always said "Out-of-Sight" 
Sometimes, I would say "Dynamite" 
With friends, I was "Tight" 
Hey, I turned out "Alright"

Swim the Psy Guy

Lets get lost in our imagination
Let's take a vacation
Let language get lost in translation 
Let your feelings take you to your destination 
We are learning about the art of creation
Trippy visions and unexplainable vibrations deep inside
Only to be comforted while on an uncontrollable and unpredictable interplanetary ride
Come take a trip on the wild side
Come feel the energy surging out of our pores
You have no fears and no enemies when it comes to the psychedelic spores
They just want to share knowledge about what and who we are at the core
DMT and Ayahuasca want to show you other worldly doors and possibly what the afterlife has in store 
Words can't express every chill and hallucination that flows through our being
What is a "true" definition of an entity or a being
Can you actually tell me this is just an illusion? 
Or can you understand my language of confusion
So many are fortunate to experience mother nature's chemical fusions
Share art, share love, but most importantly share knowledge
Psychedelics are nature's version of educating us, similar to college
Just one experimentation and then the truth in my words will be easy to acknowledge

Love the Universe until it Love's you back ?

Trippy Hippy

What's wrong with Hippies,
who like taking trippies
or smoke funny ciggies.
Freedom of mind, while brain is reclined,
no longer blind, the answers I find,
connections that bind, while time hits rewind.

One about a Cat
One about a Hat
One about Horton on the loose

Hippy Love Chips 1974

hippy ... love chips How beautiful was it? 
The park by the beach with one caged panda and bedraggled peacocks...calling and flirting, as nature dictated 
Displayed by the sea 
Water 
Lake 

Filled with crabs loitering by the inlet flow 
Who waited patiently to secure our sausagemeat on a string 
And rose embaressed and wonky 
Clutching by one claw 
Cross as grandma ... on a Monday 
Wash day 
Scrubbing stains .. 

How beautiful and memorable was that 1974 summers day 
As we bobbed in boats, as our brave, mad ever so handsome hippy father 
Stood precariously ( against the rules) and splashed our sodden frames with his cruel laughing oar 

How gorgeous was mother and fathers glorious young white teeth 
Which matched perfectly the beautiful lively tinkering forms of light 
Which danced upon said lake 

The very last time I saw her honestly... laugh with adoration at his jesting antics 
Hoping to impress 
Her... 
Stretching his vibrant smile as a peacock in bloom 
It was a beautiful moment 

The last time I felt swaddled in the possibility of our family , hope and 
Generous 
Love chips

Premium Member Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves

Sonny orchestrated; Cher was his doll.
Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves, was their nightly drawl.
We’d preach a little gospel to save them all.
Townspeople were afraid of us, even Baby Paul.

Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves, was their nightly drawl.
They were treacherously mean with their call.
Townspeople were afraid of us, even Baby Paul.
But the men would sneak, see us, big and tall.

And lay their money down, and have a ball.  
Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves was their nightly drawl.
We picked up a handsome man in Mobile, ya’all.
Townspeople were afraid of us, even Baby Paul.

Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves was their nightly drawl.
We picked up a handsome man in Mobile, ya’all.
Townspeople were afraid of us, even Baby Paul.
Papa would learn about this romance, in the Fall.

He was tall, handsome, but left me after all.
We picked up a handsome man in Mobile, ya’all.
Papa would learn about this romance, in the Fall.
Sonny orchestrated; Cher was his doll.

Premium Member The Hippy Generation

TV's sure changed a lot since the sixties
From I Love Lucy to The Beverly Hillbillies
Oh for the innocence
Andy Griffith for instance
But a whole lot better than today's weirdies

Premium Member A Hippy Hymn

There are things I'd rather
burn in hell for than
admit that I have done

'Cept anxiety
is pushing me
towards honesty

That foreign land foreboding
wander it could be loading
peace and love for all eternity.

Premium Member Hippy Dippyvan Brings Cousins

The clan began singing before I saw the hippy dippy van.
It ripped around the mountain, and we heard its ceiling fan.
hollering and the wailing came to our ears with the smacking too.
It was the wild McCorlick Cousins, straight from Kalamazoo!

They are evil and they’re naughty, and they make us all laugh.
We were not surprised at all to see a contraband giraffe.
Their father is crazy, and their mother is beyond coping.
They came tearing down the street. No one here is moping!

Premium Member Back In the Hippy Unhappy Sixties

When I was in high school,
late 60's,
we were concerned
about the ballistic lose/lose climate of hate
in Vietnam
and spreading across the U.S.

The only smiling winners
were purveyors of ballistics
and their transport vehicles.

Mistrust of an unfederating nation,
bought and sold elected
through polarized competitive marketing
lack of healthy and effective self/other governing bodies,
lacking investment vision,
lacking revisional prospects of cooperatively-held vocations
in nondualistic public/private service,
unhappily lacking transparent extended family attachments,
lacking courage of vulnerable dyadic and polypathic relationships.

But, in this post-millennial time
in global school of hard
multiplying
degenerative climate trends,
our crisis looms in intimately private
and transcendent public infamy,
internationally
globally transparent climates
of fear,
anger,
hate,
detachment and cynical degeneration,
mendacity and commodification,
win/lose business as usual
and capitalistic might makes winged patriarchs Right
with kleptocratic unhealthy privilege.

Forgetful
that each individual identity
born of EarthMother womb
and egg
began in win/win organically cooperative integrity;
Just as each individual multigenerational seed
was produced as some plant's future sanctuary of hope.

The trusting faith of a mustard seed
is active hope for climates of win/win health care,
giving outside
and receiving inside.

Neither the Vietnam War
nor the inhumane and sacrilegious 
kleptocratic War against ClimateHealth
could be Lose/Lose possible
with the Win/Win mountainous faith
of this liberal in love 
mustard conserving-seed.

Sadly,
most of the Hippies I knew
were more into ketchup
on their fries
while counting body bags
and lies.

Happy Hippy

Im just a happy hippy
I say it all day long
Those of you who know me
Will help me sing a song 
To the tunes i make up daily
To the poetry i write
I'm just a happy hippy
Every day and every night

Premium Member Reformed Hippy Communion

He recently moved into a double-wide
with working, some would say classless,
while others would argue for clueless
white trailer non-trash.

He's getting along
in this post-middle class
over hill
and ranting shrill retiring constitution
declaring interdependence
in this, Earth's great
ReFormed Hippy GreenCommunion

Old mostly happy geezers
and gussies, yes,
most people of the park
not quite relentlessly white
and ambiguously green--not afraid of old and new colors
they have long known,
or guessed someone they knew
knew,
with decent Christian names
and local 
non-postal reputations
for fishing
and walking
and breathing,
cooking
and baking
more like all the white folk do
than not.

Most of his neighbors 
recall an antiHippy 1960s
youthful passioned past,
some red Vietnam militarized patriarchal
and some blue/green counter-cultural
activists all agree

Hippies got some sex things
too disconnectedly wrong,
but experimented more healthily
with green experiential ecology
of living simply
with cooperative non-violent sufficiency--
a potentially safer integrity 
of wealthy health compassion systems,
organic and holistic.

And, yet, not just this sufficiency of EarthJust Truth
but also celebrating Her Sacred Blue/Green Global Beauty
rooted in religiously
re-membering
Come By Here, Lord,
still sung with white privilege
to steal your Culture, Girl
in soulful performance art,
Kum By Yah
served with vanilla GirlScout cookies,

Celebrative
meditative multicultural indigenous prayers
for Earth's Great Green EnLightenment
as Ego's transcendent polypathic 
compassionate EmPowerment
of suffering souls
and solitude
and green/blue gratitude

Here
in his new but old trailer park,
